The chances that I'll be doing tests on sparc are pretty-much zero.
I have some VMs for Intel lying around with 5.10 from various
vintages but they come with gcc and most are 32bit.

The build has not changed between 3.0 and 3.1 (it changed a lot
between 2.x and 3.x).
Have you tried "make makefiles "CC=whatever -m64" and have it pick
up 64-bit libraries? I don't think I should hard-code your 32/64bit
preferences in makedefs.
